Mike Wallace, the Dolphins' speedy new wide receiver, apparently likes what he sees from quarterback Ryan Tannehill in passing drills.

Wallace, who signed with the Dolphins from Pittsburgh, didn't dare put Tannehill in the same class as Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. But he spoke favorably of Tannehill's potential to spice up Miami's sometimes bland passing game.

"Ryan can really fling it," Wallace said. "I think from a deep ball perspective Ryan may be able to throw the ball a little bit farther than Ben.

"Obviously, Ben is more experienced in a game-time situation, but the way it's going it won't take long for him to be one of the great quarterbacks at all."
